Hi,

 

The guardian passive was changed to lose 1.5% crit damage and gain +12 Attack Power. While this change isn't bad and I think benefits the class, I think the real passive change wanted by most guardian players is an attack speed passive. I would much rather gain an attack speed passive while having crit damage instead of the gained AP. Guardian is one of the slower classes in the game in our attacks and movement. This can lead to imbalance between other classes and leaves guardian in a feeling of it being a bit "out-dated". Many classes who deal damage similiar to guardian don't have the trouble of slow attacks & movement. I am not saying that guardian is a bad class but I think the class would benefit far more from having some sort of speed passive or change to keep up with other classes and future content. 

Thank you for reading.

Be happy that you not got nerfed instead, as there are classes who got meme class passives instead like the 150stamina...

I think the point was for guardian to be a slow, tanky class that delt really high damage. I agree though, her slowness sets her back. Thats why I rolled off her, her potential is really limited by her speed.

Tanky should not be used as a word in this game.

 

Ever since the new AP scaling they added, every class dies to a single combo. Guardian's health gets shredded away even during SA. Because she's so @#$% slow she's taking even more damage than faster classes.

Since the Reboot, succession guardian is far behind others classes in pvp with the same gs. In term of:

 

- speed: before the Reboot she was slow but it was balanced, now face to all es including warrior and zerk it's just unfair, she can't follow at all, and I don't talk about musa, mae, ninja, kuno, DK and lahn, the difference is just riculously huge in term of movement and running... And it's worse in the New valencia rbf, it's literally unplayable.

 

- stamina; huge spending of stamina, in classic rbf for example, she can run/jump half of the map before stamina is empty. Musa for example can run almost twice around the map, and zerk, nova or warrior, one.

 

- fights: big disadvantages to access and fight on roofs, and small locations in the New valencia rbf par exemple.

 

- damages: she was made for breaking lines, she can't really anymore, others are too fast, going out of her aoes then come back. Furthermore, others make now the same amount of damages than her, or more like musa, lahn, ninja, sorceress... And even with very high DP and Health and high defense vs CC Guardian can't keep frontlining, because damages she takes are so high and CC are so many, and Q block is now easily broken....

 

- iframe: 1 iframe every 3 sec + 1 every 15 sec (for succession).

 

- grab: 1 every 15 sec...

 

Among all classes, I like to play only succession guardian. Globally speaking, she is too much disadvantaged now. She became unplayable. Do something please, the fun has decreased massively for the succession guardian since the Reboot. Make Succession Guardian fun again! Thanks in advance.

There something wrong with Mountain Slam? It hits for way less than skills that have less damage.

We are in the same boat.
I know this doesnt help but now imagine ur playing awakening Witch and are as slow as guardia but with less iframes,less mobility, less damage, less tankyness,no grab and and in comparison super bad FG. imagine guardia already feel left behind, now imagine how awa witch feel against other classes when you already feel behind on same gs against guardia players XD

yet ppl tell you you have a heal that makes up for it all xD (try healing when everyone blows you up in sa that you cant even cancel out of)

Idk beeing slow in this game is such a huge handycap to every smallscale scenario.

guardian is in a ferrari next to awakened casters which might as well drive a bicycle in comparison.
